Track laps At MIS

Took the Kony Pony for 6 laps around Michigan today,got there early and was able to run behind the pace car. They kept us between 75 and 80 mph, was able to drop back a little and stretch her legs twice to 100mph.What a blast!

Nice, sounds like you had a blast. I would love to hit the track with mine one day.

Awesome day at the track dude - no worrying about any cherries lit up in the rearview mirror, just straight up fun! Love to do that someday, been to MIS a couple of times for some Cup races.

How much and who do you talk to? I would LOVE to open mine up on the track.

All the info is here http://www.mispeedway.com/Vanity-Pages/Track-Laps.aspx You're running out of time this year,it's only on for another week,they're re-surfacing the track after the Nascar race in Aug. You really are itching to go faster,you could imagine the chaos if they didn't keep you contained.They don't limit what type of cars get on the track,there was a smart car with a grandmother and her grandson doing laps! If you ever do it,get there early so you can be behind the pacecar,believe it or not,if we would have gone another lap we would have had to slow down because we would have caught the tail enders.

That was the weirdest part of the whole thing when you come out of turn four and look up at all those empty seats,the only time I've ever seen the place empty.
